A desperate act by desperate people



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Having spent a fair amount of time in Cincinnati, "radical" or even "liberal" are not words that get tossed around much there. Proctor and Gamble is pretty mainstream America, as I recall and it operates in a very conservative town that manages to bundle in the worst elements of the old south and the worst of the midwest and it's called Cincinnati. (Yes, Mount Adams and a few places in town were less conservative, but generally speaking, the town is very right wing.)

So in that context, Christian groups are furious with P&G and planning a boycott of their products because the company opposes a local statute to exempt gays and lesbians from special civil rights protection. Hell, I think opposing bullshit like that in Cincinnati is impressive and ought to be rewarded. Great job P&G!
